Crews are continuing the extensive reconstruction of Belmont Park, a historic racing venue, investing $450 million to revive it. Once a dilapidated site, the new park features a smaller, taller grandstand and improved racing surfaces, including a new synthetic oval. NYRA leaders see this modernization as essential for hosting high-profile events, including the upcoming Breeders' Cup World Championships in 2027, enhancing its reputation in the thoroughbred racing community.
The racing surfaces are also starting to come together again, with the rails going up for the turf courses and part of the main track.
A smaller but taller grandstand is on the rise, with crews laboring to put the framework together for what will become the most modern racing venue in America.
